I have found that teaching in universities is much of a muchness. It depends what materials they use. If the use the Beijing Language and Culture materials, these are terrible. The Shanghai Normal University texts are better, but the methodologies are the same.
Private schools can freelance their teaching methods which are often much better. However, I am unaware of any private schools in Chenggong.

Those with websites, I would book direct now.
Other family GH in villages, should be ok after the October holidays to walk in. There will always be one in the village.
Ctrip, only if you are really concerned, as the prices will be much higher than if you go direct.

A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.

Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.

In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.

They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.

They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.
